NUOVI DAZI sui PICCOLO PACCHI: SOLO COSTI PER NOI?
In this Italian-language video, the speaker explains the new European Union customs fee that took effect on July 1, adding a €3 charge to every shipment valued under €150 that arrives from non‑EU countries. He illustrates how the fee is applied—either per product group or per individual item—using his own AliExpress order as an example, showing how a €160 purchase became €217 due to €60 in duties. The video highlights the disproportionate price jumps for cheap items (e.g., a €0.57 heat sink increasing by 600 %), presents 2024 import statistics (12 million parcels under €150 entered the EU, 91 % from China), and outlines the law’s stated objectives: level the playing field between Chinese and European sellers, improve product safety and compliance, and reduce environmental impact. The speaker criticises the practical outcome, noting that consumers bear the cost despite the law’s intent, and suggests that platforms can mitigate the issue by establishing warehouses within the EU. He advises viewers to check the origin of shipments and prefer items shipped from European warehouses to avoid excessive duties, and invites comments on the topic.
